4. Default of Delivery

We shall make any effort to effect delivery as early as possible. If the buyer is in arrears with payment, if deliveries are delayed as a result of force majeure or due to incidents which hinder or prevent (make impossible) the delivery, our obligation to effect the delivery is suspended. These preventions may be especially labour disputes (strikes and lockouts), breakdowns in production, shortage of goods and raw materials and other unforeseeable production obstacles affecting ourselves, our suppliers or carriers ordered by us or our suppliers. In case of these events we can choose whether to withdraw from the contract or to lengthen the delivery time until the obstacle is removed. Compensation claims of the buyer due to not keeping within the time limit are excluded.

We shall have the right to claim further damages due to delayed payment. Order acceptance or executing of orders may depend on a guarantee or advance payment. Compensation payments are permitted only if the counter claims are accepted by us and have become legally valid.

8.Guarantee and Formal Complaints

The buyer has to test the delivered goods immediately upon receipt by trial application with regard to condition and application purpose, but not in the case if a trial application is unacceptable by exception. Complaints have to be submitted in writing 14 days after receipt of goods at the latest, otherwise the goods are considered to be accepted. Customary deviations in quantity may not be claimed.

In the event of complaints, the goods have to be returned to us immediately in their original condition and with original packing specifying the complaint, product and its batch number, if necessary.

9.Liability

Claims for damages against us - also on account of secondary damages, especially owing to delay or impossibility as well as the non-compliance of any contractual or pre-contractual subsidiary duties or obligations, positive breach of obligation, infringement of any third-party industrial property rights and/or unlawful act, are impossible, irrespective of the legal foundation, unless we have acted wilfully or with gross negligence or the claim for damages is based on the lack of a granted property. A liability claim also exists if the breach of an obligation that is of essential importance to achieve the purpose of the contract has been executed negligently by one of our legal representatives or managing staff members. The extent of each claim for damage is limited to the foreseeable damage. In case of purchase business all claims for damages against us are barred by the statute of limitations after 6 months of delivery, unless the claim was based on unlawful acts or on injury to life, limb or health or on gross negligence. As far as our liability is excluded this shall also cover possible personal liability of our staff members, employees, agencies and assistants.

10. Reservation of Title

We reserve the right that the goods delivered remain our property until receipt of payment of all existing and coming receivables resulting from the business relationship with the buyer. If the buyer links, processes or mixes the goods delivered with other products we shall become joint-owner of the new products. The percentage of our co-ownership is determined acc. to the ratio between the value of the goods delivered and the value of the new product.

A resale of the goods covered by the reservation of title is only possible with our express prior written consent. Provided we agree, all buyer’s claims against third parties from the sale pass to us upon coming into existence in order to safeguard our existing and future claims against the buyer. We shall not redeem the assigned claim as long as the buyer pays his financial obligations. The buyer is, however, obliged to disclose the third party owner to us upon request and to make the assignment known to the former.

Buyer’s claims against third parties from the resale of goods covered by the reservation of title must not be included in current invoices.
